Synopsis The book gives a vast knowledge about the progress made in India on different entomological aspects. The book will serve as a complete source book on research techniques and practices of pest management, advanced genetic and biotechnological researches, new pest management technologies on different crops, pesticidal contamination status in environment. The book has been written for teachers, students, researchers and extension workers engaged in pest management strategies. Key features: Scientists and researchers form IARI, IIHR, IIVR, PAU, NBPGR, CPRI, and various of RRS's of IARI, NBPGR and ICAR research complex for Eastern and NEH regions have contributed their research papers. Articles on history, sampling, surveillance and forecasting of pests, emerging pest problems and critical issues in their management. Ecological, biotechnological, genetic engineering and semiochemicals perspectives in IPM have been covered in the book. Topics like pest management in cereals, rice, cotton, seed spices, fruit and vegetable, crops, potato, rapeseed and mustard, stored grain pests and soil, adds to the importance and utility of the book.
